We start our day very early with breakfast in our hotel, the Crowne Plaza Chengdu City Centre before getting a taxi to Chengdu Train Station.
We board a high speed train to Leshan, today we are travelling in First Class and the journey time is just under one hour.
We arrive at Leshan and get a taxi to the Leshan Buddha.
The Leshan Giant Buddha is a 71-metre tall stone statue, built between 713 and 803. It is carved out of a cliff face that lies at the confluence of the Min River and Dadu River in the southern part of Sichuan Province in China, near the city of Leshan, China.
We spend all morning at the Leshan Buddha and even climbed down to the steps to stand at the feet of the buddha, after a very long wait.
We then go to the Oriental Buddha Capital.
Open to public in 1994, Oriental Buddha Capital is only 1km from Leshan Giant Buddha. Covering an area of over 20,000 m2, Oriental Buddha Capital is a stone carving theme park, which combines religious art, sculpture art and garden art together. The park has modeled over 3000 Buddha statues with different materials, including rock, bronze, clay and jade. The whole park represents the art style of Chinese Buddhism and Southeast Asia Buddhism. The park has a 170-meter-long sleeping Buddha statue, which is the largest and longest sleeping Buddha statue in the world.
We then leave the Leshan Scenic Area and get a taxi to the station and then a train back to Chengdu.
In Chengdu we get to experience an authentic Hot Pot for the first time before settling in for the night back at our hotel.
